Cancelled date and shopping

Was looking forward to today as it's supposed to be my first time bringing Kai out alone. Had arranged to meet Man Wei and gang as Plaza Sing today. I had prepared myself and practised using the pouch sling a couple of time so that I can bring him out in the sling and take train to PS. Who's knows Man Wei sms that the date was cancelled due to low attendance.

Haircut
With the date cancelled, I went for a Haircut at Gorgeous and left Kai with Mummy.
I have 30% discount since is my birthday month. Clara, my usual hairdresser, advise to cut a new style instead of bob. I go ahead with her suggestion. Is real short and she taught me to style with wax. Bought wax from her then. Looks easy but i guess i would give up styling in a few days time.

Shopping
Went to bugis for a short shopping trip. Wanted to get some sweets for xmas gift but cant seem to see what I want. Anyway bought a sweater for myself from my favourite Muji as office is so cold nowadays. I bought a Avent teether for Kai too.

Tian Yao's wedding

I missed Tian yao's wedding ceremony in the morning! Kai was cranky the night before.I am too tired and Kai fall asleep at 8am after feeding him some milk.
No choice lah... At least we made it for the wedding dinner.

Kai is so excited to see so many people and he didn't cry seeing them.
but he vomitted a few times. Maybe he is too excited.

Happy Birthday to me and Happy 4th month to Kai!

Today is my birthday and I had taken childcare leave for the day.
Did some cleaning for our home in the morning.
I noticed that Kai slept till 8am nowadays although he slept at 630pm last night .

In the evening MIL came over to take care of Kai kai. I carry Kai Kai before handling over to MIL. At first he wants to cry and laugh at the same time as MIL play with him. After a while he seems to be more comfortable and I pass him over to MIL to carry as I start to prepare for my date with hubby.

We went to vivocity for the date. Had dinner at St. Louis where we had a lousy dining experience. The waitress got our order wrong, gave my hubby wedges when he wanted to baked potato, gave us chocolate ice-cream when we wanted vanilla. The drinks came only after our reminder. For our main, hubby had rib eye steak and I had cabonara, the food is not up to standard. Mushroom soup had a tint of bitterness and pumpkin soup was too sweet. Oh ya, the worst is the baked potato, which is so soft and the sour cream 'tasted like puke' as my hubby described it.

Had bought movie tickets to Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows: Part 1 for 935pm slot.
Enough time for some quick shopping. I bought a pair of black heels at Tangs for Thiam Yew's wedding this sat. Probably is near to closing time, the sales person seems reluctant to serve us. In fact, I need to go to the cashier counter to ask for a sales person to get me my size.There's no one around to serve the customer! Actually I had a wonderful experience at Red pedder, the shoes are comfortable and the sales person is real helpful but I just cant get a nice fit on their court shoes. My feet are too skinny to wear court shoes.

Hubby wanted to check out the Aramis limited edition parfum which he wanted to buy when we travelled to Osaka. But we had to rush off for our movie. When we got into the cinema, the show had started. Hubby found it weird as we were just late for a minute. There is always some advertisement before the movie actually starts. He checked the movie stubs and found the the timing is at 9am. OMG, we were late for half an hour? Hubby went out to check and told the staff that he asked for the show at 935pm. Immediately the apologetic staff went to check for empty seats and show us into the cinema which shows the movie at 935pm.

Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows: Part 1 - Draggy, lots of dialogue and very few action.
At the end of the movie, we were surprised that the movie was almost 3 hrs long. We felt like we did'nt get much content for the show. Anyway since we had already been watching the Harry Potter series for the tenth year, we very much like to watch the ending.

Reach home past midnight, Kai Kai is sound asleep. Had a tiring day and fell into a deep sleep until... Kai Kai had poo poo in the middle of the night and soiled his bed sheet and sleepsuit. Hubby cant find his sleepsuit and had no choice but to wake me up so that he can change him.
I clean him up, change his diaper and sleepsuit while hubby clean the mattress and change the bedsheet. Kai is wide awake. I fed him, burp him and put him to bed. He's still awake. Pop the pacifier and we went to bed.

Sunday family outing

Today is our usual day of sunday family outing.
We decided to lunch nearby before going town.
I decided it's time to try out Kai in the kangaroo position using pouch sling.
Kai seems quite happy in the sling =)
We still bring the stroller out so that I can eat in peace.
Our area seems to be known for wanton mee. So many coffee shop selling wanton mee that I am quite sick of it. So I choose to have Char siew rice for lunch. The shop sells homecooked soup too. We shared a lotus root with pork ribs soup. Kai look quite sad to be in the stroller, hubby says he look stone when in the sling when we start to go out of the house. Probably is his nap time. Funny thing is that he can fall asleep in the stroller on his own without using pacifier, unlike at home. Maybe he knows that he cant play with us when he is in the stroller.
After lunch we went home for my pumping session and kai's milk feed before going out. He seems to puke more when i put him in the sling so we decide not to use the sling for the day.
At around 4 pm, we manage to make for the door. Bringing a baby out need time for preparation. After one or two u-turns, we decide to go to Marina bay sands (MBS) for a walk. For convenient sake, we park at the carpark at MBS although the parking fee is S$8 for 1st hr and $2 for subsequent half hr.
MBS is the 2nd integrated resort which includes a casino, to open in Singapore. It looks pretty much like any other shopping malls. Even the food court sell pretty much the same food but at a higher price. Feeling disappointed, we order our drinks and hubby bought 2 boxes of california sushi as tea break. Anyway is feeding time for Kai too. During his milk feed, he poo poo. As the diaper changing room is too far, we decide to change him in the car and leave the place.
I suggested to go Bugis Junction for dinner as I want to check out "Let's sweets". It's a dessert buffet restaurant (supposedly Japanese desserts) which limit the eating time to 60mins. After seeing the place, we find it too cramp for us to eat with Kai in the stroller. Anyway I am a slow eater who prefer to enjoy my food then stuffing it in 60 mons. I also found out that the restaurant is opened by Japan Foods Holding which opened many Japanese themed restaurants such as Botejyu and Ajisen restaurants. We had previously tried a dessert restaurant known as The Fruit Paradise opened by the same company, selling a varierty of fruits tarts. They tasted like tarts in the fridge for N days. So I guess this dessert buffet restaurant will not served good desserts too. We gave up and went back to Mos burger for dinner.
